Fixing a DIY disaster on my Rock Guards.

So we just picked up our Airstream this weekend. And one of the things bugging me is whatever the previous owner thought they where doing on the front Rock Guards.



We all know what they are suppose to look like:





But mine, don't look like that. They look like this:



















And now I realize I should of taken some close ups before putting the Airstream away for storage.



It seems they've been spray painted with some sort of DIY bed liner. When the sun hits these, the spray paint pattern is really obvious. I also noticed they are cracking along the bottoms and top edges and whatever is on it is peeling off. It looked like it might still be the original metal under neath. I'm hoping that's the case.



Has anyone ever seen someone do this, or know why?



BTW, I am the 3rd owner of this Airstream, the guy we bought it from bought it from the original owner in Feb and hit hard times. And I am assuming that it was the original owner who did this "mod". I should of asked, but was to busy being excited.



Anyways, rather than sell out $800 bucks buying new ones, was wondering if anyone had any ideas? I guess I'll try stripper first.



I just want things to match on my Airstream.
